Addition of Highly Polarized Organometallic Compounds to N‐tert‐Butanesulfinyl Imines in Deep Eutectic Solvents under Air: Preparation of Chiral Amines of Pharmaceutical Interest

Highly polarized organometallic compounds of s‐block elements are added smoothly to chiral N‐tert ‐butanesulfinyl imines in the biodegradable d ‐sorbitol/choline chloride eutectic mixture, thereby granting access to enantioenriched primary amines after quantitatively removing the sulfinyl group. The practicality of the method is further highlighted by proceeding at ambient temperature and under air, with very short reaction times (2 min),...
